MMC Norilsk Nickel partially suspended the operations of Oktyabrsky and Taimyrsky mines due to ground water inflow into the mine workings of Oktyabrsky mine at -350 m horizon. Operations at the Taimyrsky mine have been suspended as there are connected excavations, and water is also coming to the horizon of this mine. Currently, active work is underway to build a cofferdam to stop further water inflow. The impact of the partial mine suspension on the metal production company's outlook will be evaluated after the waterflooding operations are completed.
